Observation At least 75% of endosperm acetone insoluble solids was galactomannan.
Observation About 12% of endosperm acetone insoluble solids was other listed constituents.
Observation All endosperm galactomannan disappeared during five days of germination.
Observation All but 5% of endosperm dry weight disappeared during germination.
Observation About one third of nitrogen and phosphorus from endosperm and seed coat translocated.
Observation Nitrogen and acetone insoluble solids accumulated linearly in the seedling axis after a 36-hour lag.
Observation Axis dry weight and phosphorus increased rapidly, then accumulated more slowly.
Observation Cotyledon dry weight temporarily increased.
Observation Cotyledon nitrogen and phosphorus decreased after 36 hours.
Observation Endosperm consisted largely of solid galactomannan without cell lumina.
Observation The endosperm aleurone layer was metabolically active.

Other claims from this paper (15)

Intervention effect One thousand ppm 4-Cl retarded maturation of attached snap-bean fruits.
Intervention effect Fresh weight of treated snap-bean fruits was 11.2% greater than untreated fruit when harvested 1 week after treatment.
Intervention effect Fresh weight of treated snap-bean fruits was 10.1% greater than untreated fruit when harvested 2 weeks after treatment.
Intervention effect Fresh weight of treated snap-bean fruits was 11.4% greater than untreated fruit when harvested 3 weeks after treatment.
Intervention effect Treated snap-bean fruits contained 2.3% more moisture than untreated fruit when harvested 1 week after treatment.
Intervention effect Treated snap-bean fruits contained 8.7% more moisture than untreated fruit when harvested 2 weeks after treatment.
Intervention effect Treated snap-bean fruits contained 14.0% more moisture than untreated fruit when harvested 3 weeks after treatment.
Intervention effect Treated snap-bean pods were 14% heavier in dry weight than untreated pods at maturity.
Intervention effect Sprays of 4-Cl at 250 to 1000 p.p.m. reduced the final yield of fresh snap-bean fruit.
Intervention effect The most concentrated spray (1000 p.p.m. 4-Cl) reduced the final yield of fresh snap-bean fruit by 44%.
Intervention effect A 50 p.p.m. spray did not significantly reduce snap-bean yield under the conditions used.
Intervention effect Sprays of 4-Cl at 50 to 1000 p.p.m. increased the water-retaining capacity of snap-bean fruit when harvested and stored.
Intervention effect The acid retarded the rate of colour change in harvested and stored snap-bean fruit.
Intervention effect Applying 4-Cl in a wax emulsion was more effective than an equal concentration in aqueous spray in retarding moisture evaporation from harvested snap-bean fruit.
Intervention effect Fruit sprayed with the wax-growth-regulator mixture lost about 25% less moisture than unsprayed fruit during the first week of storage.
